If the [RESET/CANCEL] button is pressed when the “AL” indication is lit (during alarm recording), alarm recording stops, the “AL” indication goes out, and timelapse recording is restored. If the alarm buzzer is on, the buzzer sound also stops.

If the “AL” indication blinks and the [RESET/CANCEL] button is pressed, the “AL” indication goes out.

In this case, even if the menu switch <TAPE END MODE> is set to “STOP”, the operation executed at end of the tape is determined by the setting of the <AUTO REW> or <REPEAT REC> menu switch in the <VTR MODE> menu.

Display the alarm list screen and press the [RESET/ CANCEL] button to reset the alarm input data.
